Fillion and Allen did not make attempt to conceal the romance. Photos of them spending time together, including the recent Halloween, are posted on her Instagram account. A shot taken in June showed her cuddling up to the actor at a dinner party. They also held each other when dressing up as a satyr and a forest nymph for Halloween.

"They met a few months ago through friends and it's going really well. He's met her son and they get along," a source told Us Weekly. Allen's 18-year-old son Jake is the result of her marriage to production manager and producer Justin Moritt. They got divorced in 1999 before she went on marrying Iranian-English rapper Mams Taylor and divorcing him in 2012.

Allen is said to be over the moon with her relationship to Fillion. "Krista is super happy. She's been kind of unlucky in love in the past and now she's found this genuinely nice guy who treats her well. They are having a great time together," another source told Us.
